Ask a man which way he is going to vote, and he will probably tell you. Ask him, however, why, and vagueness is all.

Court cases about this amendment
Petitioner "Oregon" was the U.S. state of that name. Respondent "Mitchell" wasJohn Mitchell in his role as United States Attorney General. Congress had passed an act requiring all states to register citizens between the ages of 18 and 21 as voters. Oregon did not desire to lower its voting age to 18, and filed suit on the grounds that the act was unconstitutional. The Supreme Court found largely for Oregon, in that it found that while Congress could set requirements for voting in federal elections that it did not have the power to set the voting age for state elections.
